During the 2008 worldwide financial crisis he saved our Canadian butts:

"But, compared to most other G7 nations, Canada came through largely unscathed. The reason for this? A sound banking system, solid financial rules, and, perhaps most importantly, the leadership of then-Bank of Canada Governor Mark Carney, whose sharp actions not only saved Canada from the worst of the crisis but also averted what could have been a truly national economic disaster."

Another reason why I voted for him.
